Food Scene
Fabulous New Mexican style food. We've loved the Chavez family and their fine restaurants for more than 30 years. The entire menu is divine. The chili rellenos, fresh margaritas and sopapillas are spectacular!

We spent our summers boating on Canyon Lake. Take a nature tour on the Dolly Steamboat. Right across the street from the marina is the Boulder Canyon trailhead. An awesome 8 mile hike.
